Bollinger bands
A technical indicator that measures volatility and helps identify potential price reversals.
Bonds
Debt securities. The issuer (a government, corporation, municipality, or supranational) borrows money from investors, agrees to pay periodic interest (the coupon) until maturity, and then returns the principal (the face value, or par). That’s the entire structure.
Two things to internalise about bonds. First, prices and yields move inversely. When market interest rates rise, the fixed coupons on existing bonds become less attractive, so prices fall to compensate. The maths is mechanical, not vibes-based. Second, bond risk isn’t one thing. It’s at least three: credit risk (will the issuer default?), interest-rate risk (what happens to my price if rates move?), and inflation risk (will my coupons keep up with rising prices?). Different bonds emphasise different risks.
The global bond market is far larger than the global equity market, but it’s mostly invisible to retail investors because trading happens over the counter rather than on exchanges.
Example: A US 10-year Treasury with a 4% coupon and $1,000 face pays $40 a year (split into two semi-annual coupons of $20) and returns the $1,000 at maturity. If rates jump to 5% the day after you buy, the bond’s market price drops to roughly $920. Same future cash flows, discounted at the new higher rate.
Breakout
When an asset’s price makes a sudden movement past support and resistance levels, indicating potential oppotunities for trend changes.
British Retail Consortium (BRC)
The UK retail industry’s main trade association. Founded in 1992, members include all the supermarket majors (Tesco, Sainsbury’s, M&S, Asda, Morrisons), big high-street names, online players, and a long tail of smaller retailers.
The BRC plays two roles. The visible one is policy advocacy; the BRC negotiates on behalf of members with HM Treasury and Whitehall on tax, employment law, planning, and trade policy. The less visible but maybe more important one is data publication. The BRC-KPMG Retail Sales Monitor and the BRC Shop Price Index come out monthly and arrive earlier than official ONS retail data, which makes them important leading indicators for UK macro analysts.
The BRC also runs the Global Standards programme, which sets food safety and packaging standards used by retailers worldwide as part of supplier audits.
Example: When the BRC Shop Price Index showed annual food inflation peaking near 15% in spring 2023, the data hit gilt yields and sterling within hours of release; well before the ONS confirmed similar figures in its CPI print weeks later. The BRC numbers don’t replace official statistics, but they often move markets first.
